The Rest of
Our Vacation
On the Saturday, after we toured all of the history,
I had worn hubby out. His legs were tired, so we thought
it'd be a good idea to go back to the travel trailer to rest.
If you read the food page, you know what happened next...
the air conditioner was frozen and it was HOT! We turned it off and opted
to go see a movie before dinner to let it defrost.
We watched the movie and were still so full
from lunch and breakfast. We knew it was too early
for dinner and that the trailer was probably still too hot.
So we did what we like to do to kill time, we drove around and
'got lost'. Our version of getting lost just means to drive around
aimlessly, my sense of direction is honestly superb,
so I always know howto backtrack or get us on the right track.
All day long we had driven by these HUGE homes, and
finally we had time to just cruise the neighborhood and
look around. So this is our 'tour of Little Rock'.

These homes aren't in any particular order,
so the light will be coming from all sorts
of directions.

I love the 'castle' look of this house.

When flying by this house, on the right,
I thought of an English cottage
with it's colorful roof,
deep in the forest with all the greenery.

Drive by picture taking is an art.
I am not a master of this art.
This was the best photo of this home
that I like to imagine is Meditteranian.
Now if only it had a secret portal to Crete.
Do you think it's cooler over there?

You simply can't take pictures of
homes in Arkansas without
quite a few being the
Craftsman variety.
Although this home is probably newer
than most of the ones in Arkansas,
I couldn't resist taking a photo for all
the pink flowers that go so well with
its taupe paint.

Hmmmm...maybe this
was my driveby English Cottage,
or maybe there's a theme in the
neighborhood?
house





Now this sharp steeple makes me think of
Gingerbread Houses,
but isn't nearly as detailed as
homes that really are classified as such.

Just look at the size of this house,
and imagine the cost,
due to it's HUgE neighbors.

We had to drive by this house twice.

The first time, we were going MUCH
to fast to get a photo, and I absolutely
HAD To!

Does it not scream Swiss Chateau?

But luckily, while we were turning around
to go back to this house,
we stumbled upon the
Catholic Diocese of Arkansas.

Take a gander at it below

It really was impressive to see, tucked away behind a neighborhood.

And close up it was cool too, and then it was time for dinner!
